Give reasons:
Ferrimagnetic substances show better magnetism than antiferromagnetic substances.
In the presence of magnetic field, ferrimagnetic substances get oriented in the direction of the magnetic field. While in antiferromagnetic substance, domains are oppositely oriented and cancel out each other. Hence, ferrimagnetic substances show better magnetism than antiferromagnetic substances.
